I implied the checkbox would set the installer to English, but actually it would be little more work to have the language screen set the installer language, with a checkbox option that reads (in the currently chosen language): "Let me select a different language for the installed OS". Unchecked by default, it indicates the selected locale is used for the installer and installed OS. If checked, the next page displays the same cascading list of languages+territories, except all options appear only in the previously selected locale (as would be the entire installer UI). And the title of the page would clearly indicate the language+territory chosen here sets the locale for the installed OS only. I think this can be done with less verbiage than I'm suggesting. And it's a pretty cool feature. I don't know any other OS that enables a speaker of any supported locale to easily install the OS on behalf of a speaker of any other supported locale.
